🍂 However busy the world feels, early autumn in the New Forest has a reassuring rhythm all its own.
September can still bring warm, almost summery days, but the light begins to soften and turn golden. Afternoons feel more precious, evenings draw in, and spectacular sunsets remind us to make the most of every last drop of daylight.
And then, as reliably as autumn itself, the pigs appear in the Forest for pannage — one of those wonderfully distinctive New Forest traditions that makes this time of year feel so special.
If you’re looking for more ways to make the most of the season, our Weekly What’s On guide has you covered with local happenings, fun days out, and community events galore.
